Legion Beta Patch Notes

[Feril]

• "Unlock new appearances by collecting Soulbound weapons and armor your character can equip."

Bad patch note. It should read "Unlock new appearances by collecting Soulbound weapons and armor."

• "Characters can now change between any of their specializations at most any time for a progressive gold cost."

Bad patch note. It should read "Characters can now change between any of their specializations at most any time for free."

Did you prune your common sense by mistake, Blizzard? Those aren't changes designed with the end user in mind. Those are good changes smeared with trash because "This cake is too good, so we'll spray vinegar over it because everything has to have a bad part, right? Right?".

Please fucking tell me the progressive gold has a cap...

Edit:
Going back to this it might be even worse than i thought, it is not that its just a huge gold drain which nobody likes but could potentially mean that the order halls garrisons will generate so much gold and goodies from missions and whatnot that we will see a similar situation to what happended in WOD, hence the need to sink the players gold reserves

is this game nothing but panels and tabs now?

I feel like there is more removal of shit in legion then there is adding of shit.

[Aelric70]

clearly no one cares, that is why i posted complaining

So you're no one, was this a surprise to you?

CHANGE pisses of people for a reason. Shitty changes after shitty changes. It's not like there no reason people get upset over changes.

There are plenty of reasons to not get upset, but whatever floats your boat dude

If they keep them in from alpha. There are runes you can scribe and sell. Kinda like flasks but they stack so raiders will want them.

Still bad idea about PvP eqv only... where is pve-pvp eqv combination finally like vanilla,tbc,wotlk??? Everyone has the same eqv again like brainless sheep, great! REALLY... NO INDIVIDUALITY again, thx all lazy casual players. This game is more and more dismember... and what is badest? it's no Blizzard mistake....

[daxter54]

Ofc course ! If you haven't played in years you will even get preferrences as opposed to others who remained subbed and provide feedback to the dev's.

lol i've had the account frozen for about 2 months not like 6 years wtf, it has been 1 year since the last big patch so how many feedback have you sent them in this 2 months?

[Spryte]

Can you explain this to me, I've never heard about switching gear for set bonuses? // btw its not sarcasm or mocking, I'm really asking.

Rogues can use the MoP tier set a few seconds before pull to get extra combat points/energy/buff uptime or something on pull. I dont know the specifics as ive never played a rogue, but i know the rogues in our raid team do it. They gain a small boost in their burst.

A lot of good changes and some weird ones... Still pumped

[Alki]

I got a Beta invite ... but I can't post in the Alpha/Beta forums on my account. Anyone know why?

To give them a small benefit of the doubt -- it's already like this if you swap too often.
It goes from something like 31g to 50, to 75 to 100 and caps at 100 or so.
Will be something worth testing to see though.

You should do some research... Inscription gold making will see a massive increase in Legion.

Anyone getting Alpha/Beta update on Bnet, but not getting an email? Stuck at work and been checking emails all day. I did try and log into Account Management, but only shows WoD PTR

Asmongold released a video saying there was a vendor that sold toys for 250K, 500K and mounts for 1M and 2M...so im sure this gold sink will be in and our income will be higher?

"Spirit and Bonus Armor have been removed.
Multistrike has been removed."

Lets just go ahead and remove all cloth, leather, mail, and plate from the game too and just rename it all to "Armor" and weapon types too while we are at it.

players might get confused having to choose between a gun or a bow! lets just call them "weapons" instead and that way everyone will be the same!

hell lets just remove all the fucking classes too while youre at it and give everyone all the exact same class with only one predetermined skill set and everyone has the same stats. In fact who needs party members, this single class should be able to be healer, tank, and dps all at the same time, to save confusion of course.

Never lucky!

Its actually the complete opposite. When gear is not part of the equation, the individual skills of each player at pvping with their spec/class are greatly emphasized. It also lets Blizz tweak pvp stats for each spec to adjust for emergent imbalance issues... those pop up every season as the really good players find OP exploits.

Just because you want the game to be loaded with convenience does not mean that blizzard have to make it that way.

The new transmog system also wasn't meant to be a way for you to collect every transmog in the game by playing a single character, it was meant for saving bag space by not having to keep shit around that you only use for transmog.

[Arvandor]

i hope the gold cost for spec switching will be removed..

this is not funny and solve NOTHING!

it brings only bad feeling to the game!

Glyphs allowed players to have some control over how they wanted to play the game - Blizzard has hated that since Wrath, it wants everyone to play the way Blizz wants them to, because Blizzard knows best (and has the sub numbers to prove it).
